Off Birth Control. Trying To Conceive, Had Unprotected Sex. Chances Of Pregnancy?

Hi. I m 42, been off of my birth control for 3 months now and we are not using any protection in hopes of getting pregnant. I have a 28 day cycle and my last period started May 12th, 2012 and ended May 19th 2012. We had sex Sunday night. My question is a two part question...could I have gotten pregnant and what are the chances if he s 46 and we have not had sex in over 3-4 weeks?

hi,
in case of 28 days regular cycle usually ovulation occurs around 14th day, so as you had intercourse on 9th day of cycle,
there is less possibility for pregnancy but that could not be completely excluded,
male age usually will not affect spermatozoa as they will be continuously produced unlike females around 3 days of abstinence is enough for good quality of sperms,
so if you miss your due date in the next cycle you undergo blood test or urine test to detect the possibility of pregnancy.
take crae.
